Fonts in XP
If you have XP and you find that some fonts don't print out properly from your apps (if they are OpenType rather than TrueType) there is a way to force XP to only display TrueType fonts for use in your Apps.

Open Windows Explorer. Navigate in the left pane to the Windows/ fonts folder, and highlight it.

From the menu click tools, folder options. You then have a dialog with a tab that doesn't seem to be available anywhere else in Windows called TrueType Fonts.

On that tab tick the box that says "Show only TrueType fonts in the programs on my computer", click apply and Ok and thats exactly what happens.
